Topuria claims he can shock world and choke out Makhachev

Ilia Topuria has stated he is ready to shock the world by submitting Islam Makhachev. The featherweight champion expressed confidence in his ability to finish the lightweight champion by choke if they were to meet. Topuria's bold claim represents a significant callout, as Makhachev is widely considered one of the best grapplers in MMA. The post questions whether Topuria has realistic expectations with this statement. No official fight between the two champions has been announced, making this purely a hypothetical matchup at this stage.
